Eminent Domain

At Fitzpatrick Lentz & Bubba, we know that early involvement of legal counsel is crucial when the power of eminent domain is used by either a government or public utility.

Those burdened with a taking are entitled to just compensation, and the utility or governmental agency exercising this extraordinary power must balance the interest of its constituents with those of the property owner.

Our knowledge of the law, when combined with our significant real estate and trial experience, creates a powerful force to advance your interests.
